I don't buy a lot of this, it's not exactly revolutionary stuff. PS3 could have taken care of a lot of these problems. If Sony truly "priced themselves out of this generation", it's their own fault. They didn't have to put so many expensive components in the PS3. They could have made a machine that was closer to the 360 in cost, released it at roughly the same time, and the console war would be a lot different at this point. It's no secret that MS is the underdog in this whole thing, so Sony wouldn't have had to do much to put themselves in a better position this gen.
EDIT: BTW, the digital hub already exists. It's called a router. You can pretty much send a signal from a router to just about anything and have access to any media you need throughout your entire house. And believe me, you don't need a console to make it happen.
